Did you trained with new mails or with mail you  have trained your 
earlier version of spambayes?
Did you use the "-f"  in the command line for training. ?

Spambayes add a header saying an email was already trained so don't 
trained on this one again.
the flag "-f" force to traine on those message anyway.
This can be a cause that your nham and nspam are still at 0

If this is not the case export your database to a flat file and check 
the number of ham and spam.
